======================
a 240hp car weighing ~2800lbs will *not* beat the pants off a 190hp car weighing
1500lbs.  i'd rather have 1 hp for 7.89 lbs than 1 hp for 11.67 lbs.  and
service?!?  ewe give a *&@#%$^ about service?!?  and ewe like italian cars?!?
;~)  

isle take the elise *any* day over an s2000.  over an nsx, for that matter.  and
i have to agree w/dan Hagrman , that for $45k, i'd even take a bmw z3 m-coupe,
over a honda s2000.  ... if i could get enuff $$$ selling my pantera, i'd even
do that, and buy the elise.
